Himmelbjerget ("The Sky Mountain") rises 147 metres above the landscape and is one of Denmark’s finest and most traditional places for outings. This has been the case ever since the old steamer Hjejlen made its call at the foot of the mountain for the very first time in 1861. The steam boat Hjejlen and the other tour boats sail from Ry and Silkeborg to Himmelbjerget in the summer season. Climb the proud mountain slope from the lakeside and fill up your senses, hunger and thirst when you’ve reached the top at Hotel Himmelbjerget or in one of the souvenir shops. Relax on the big lawn and look up into the sky. You can also drive, walk or cycle to Himmelbjerget - from the parking lot at the top there is only 200 meters to the top and the beautiful view point that is worth a visit all year round. Walking At Himmelbjerget there are many lovely walks around the area. You can also find nice walks from both Ry or Silkeborg Historical Despite the fact that Himmelbjerget rises 147 metres above sea level, the geologists claim that Himmelbjerget is a 'false' hill. When the Ice Age was over, the enormous melt waters dug into the ground and formed the subglacial stream trenches whose steep slopes form the 'false' hill - as opposed to the 'genuine' hill which is evenly rounded on all sides. In the subglacial stream trench formed by the melt water you find today the beautiful lake Julsø, originally Hjulsoe (the name refers to a cultic place), above which Himmelbjerget rises.

Take the boat from Silkeborg or Ry and visit Himmelbjerget. It is one of my favorite places!

One of the highest natural points in Denmark with its measly 148 meters above sealevel ;-) There is a tower and a very nice view from the top of it. You can hike the trail to the bottom and experience firsthand that Denmark is not really that flat after all...

A boat trip to "Himmelbjerget" is very beautiful. You can board in Silkeborg or at "de små fisk" just outside Sejs. When you get to "Himmelbjerget" by boat, you have to go up the hill until you reach an absolutely fantastic view. There are also gift shops, a restaurant and a kiosk.
